I finally had my visit with Dr M today. It was fairly short and sweet and I did get in nice an early (bonus). Anyhow the gist of the appointment was that Dr M agreed to up my dose of letrozole that should at least help with getting my body doing what it is supposed to do and you know a bit earlier so we are not "having fun" every other day for weeks on end. I very politely told dr m that gets really old. I don't care how much my dh loves it. Dr M still feels that ivf coverage is coming very soon to our province. I will be waiting with baited breath. I can not justify spending that much money on one little embryo....but if its covered....that's another story. I would jump at the chance. I did ask if he could approve us doing a few more iui. I don't know that we will but I wanted to keep the option open.
There is a lady in one of my fertility groups that found out this week at 11 weeks she had lost her baby, the fetus passed a couple weeks ago. She was at the clinic to see Dr M today to talk options. I was thinking about her and feeling for her. I've been in those shoes and had the talk twice) It sucks. She'll be having a dilation/aspiration tomorrow.
On a better note I also recently found out the one lawyer I used to work with who lost her little one the same year I lost Gavin is finally pregnant and this time with twins. I am especially happy for her because they have been through the fertility ringer several times. If anyone had to send me an email with a preggo announcement I am glad it was her....I can be more happy then jealous in this case.

Belated Happy Birthday wishes!
Glad to hear Dr. M was open to your suggestions. I know getting coverage for IVF would help so many families, but waiting for it can't be much easier than trying to find a way to pay for it yourself.
